31 Great Lakes Cargo Trades 31 Wärtsilä

32 Great Lakes Cargo Summary Iron ore, coal, limestone, cement = 98% of Lake traffic. Coal is used by both steel industry and utilities. Industries Served Cargo Contract Term Limestone is used by steel and construction industries. 80% of annual cargo volume moves under Long Term Contracts > 3 years. Long term cargo contracts bring stability, imposes barriers to new entries, and encourages firm consolidation.
